||||||||| Catherwood re-enters the Waiting Room and explains "This is the main discussion room which is logged each night."
||||||||| Catherwood announces, "The time is 4:33 AM - I now declare Thursday's chat log for March 04, 2004 officially open!"... and then, he retires back to the vestibule...
||||||||| Catherwood ushers Merlyn into the room, accepts a grimy quarter as a gratuity, mumbles something about 8:02 PM, then departs.
Merlyn: I might be late tonight, MarsCon (see www.marscon.org) is this weekend.
||||||||| Merlyn says "Catherwood, call me a cab." After the obvious joke, Merlyn exits at 8:03 PM.
||||||||| Catherwood steals into the room, and intones "Announcing 'Harry Cox, Jr.', also known as 'Nancy' -- the time is 8:51 PM" -- then he slowly retires back into the vestibule...
||||||||| Catherwood leads doctec inside, makes a note of the time (8:51 PM), then fades off into the distance going on about the waiting room or the sitting room or something.
doctec: hey harry
doctec: i am still at the office
Harry Cox, Jr.: You can never trust those aliens, Merlyn.......
doctec: i am meeting lili for a late dinner in about a half hour
doctec: so i expect i will not be back into the chat session until around 10:30 or 11
doctec: hope someone is still around then
||||||||| At 8:53 PM, the lights go out! Rocky Rococo's voice pierces the inky darkness: "I've got you now, Harry Cox, Jr.!" Shattering glass is heard, and then the lights come back on...
doctec: take care, i'll be checking in later
doctec: ttfn
||||||||| At 8:53 PM, doctec runs out the door saying "Hey, mister ice-cream man, I've got a nickel, wait for meeeee..."
||||||||| Catherwood strides in with a trumpet, plays a fanfare, and proclaims "Nine PM on Thursday, March 04, 2004 - I now declare alt.comedy.firesgn-thtre's chat officially open!" -- then he looks around at the empty room, looks at his watch, and mumbles "...am I early?"
||||||||| Catherwood trudges in at 9:07 PM, dragging Dr. Headphones by one foot and asks "Can anyone vouch for this bozo?"
Dr. Headphones: i'm the only one here? wellll, at least if i talk it will be to someone intelligent ;)
||||||||| Catherwood strides up and snorts derisively "Presenting 'ah,clem', just granted probation at 9:10 PM", then leaves hurriedly.
ah,clem: hi Ken
Dr. Headphones: ah, clem. good to see you (or at least your black on gray writing)
ah,clem: replay delayed, had a server crash,
Dr. Headphones: those pesky crashes....
ah,clem: but as you said, not one of your favourites anyway
Dr. Headphones: send it to the body shop, a little hammering and bondo, new coat of paint, be good as new :)
Dr. Headphones: what's on the schedule? and i don't know how to put the banner at the top, i think he said it's in the FAQ if you want to try
ah,clem: sad thing it is still in the shop, guess the still do not have it quite right.
ah,clem: I can do banner if I can start server, big if.
ah,clem: server is in Michigan
||||||||| With a theatrical clearing of his throat, Catherwood pipes up: "9:13 PM and late as usual, it's Dexter Fong, just back from Billville."

Dr. Headphones: clem, those remote controls are tricky. try moving the joystick just a little bit to the left. no, not that far, yeah, that's right. now hit the "A" and "B" buttons simultaneously. there, you've blown up the alien ship :)
Dexter Fong: Good penmanship too
Dr. Headphones: last time i was in a lab was in college chem 101, had to titrate and i didn't like it a bit.

||||||||| "9:19 PM? 9:19 PM!!" says Catherwood, "stephnfosterkane-klok should be here by now...oh, THERE you are!" as stephnfosterkane-klok enters and sits on the couch.

Dr. Headphones: i watched some b-movie the other night about guy who went back to 13th cent. england with chainsaw and shotgun in his 68 buick
Dexter Fong: Musta had a hard time getting high-test
ah,clem: now that sounds like fun, Ken
stephnfosterkane-klok: i wonder if folks in the military and CIA and State are going to leak stuff the whole election season
Dexter Fong: Was it a Buick (13th) Century?
stephnfosterkane-klok: that wasn't another AOL ad?
Dr. Headphones: it was, clem, quite amusing. and the girlfriend in her open bodiced dress was cute :) damn, breasts keep popping up here, don't they?
ah,clem: take some gas and a few boxes of shells,
Dexter Fong: And call the night in the morning

stephnfosterkane-klok: i see they finally caught queen beatrice and the jack of hearts and...
Elayne: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2004/02/28/wcrab28.xml&sSheet=/portal/2004/02/28/ixportal.html
regnadkcin: EGAd!
Dr. Headphones: e: i never had the crabs, but friend did. not pleasant experience

Dr. Headphones: ok, i'm dense, took me almost 2 complete viewings to realize that one ws endless loop
Dexter Fong: Reg: Are you having to type everything backwards
ah,clem: change your nick, Nick, they got the obvious joke.
Elayne: If Alice doesn't know, I suppose we shouldn't ask her.
Elayne: Sorry Dr. H, I should have warned you. :)

Dr. Headphones: reggie, might be easier to go out, sign in again under slightly different name? no pressure, i can read backwards if you want me to
Dexter Fong: Doctor Mammary?
Elayne: No, that's Janet Jackson.
Elayne: I'd be pretty surprised if she hasn't had them doctored.
Dr. Headphones: she's not a doctor, but i'd let her play one on MY tv :)
regnadkcin: I look like a fool
Freq Man: He'll be gland to see ya...
stephnfosterkane-klok: speaking of which, maybe Robin knows: why in UK do they use the form, "Mister Kerry Packer" -- is that some kind of honorific?
Dexter Fong: You can call her a lotta things but you doesn't have to call her JJ

Freq Man: Hamilton too...
Dr. Headphones: i think i have some red cards and some blue cards, but they have these pretty shapes and faces on the backs that tend to lose me money when i handle them
||||||||| Catherwood strides up and snorts derisively "Presenting 'Merlyn', just granted probation at 9:34 PM", then leaves hurriedly.
Merlyn: hello
Elayne: 'S okay Dex, he has no intention of becoming a US citizen, he just wants to have some sort of permanent ID so he can finally renew his passport.
Dexter Fong: Hi Merl
Elayne: As long as he needs to use his passport for ID he can't send it to the British Embassy in Washington to renew.
Dr. Headphones: mr. merlyn, aloha
stephnfosterkane-klok: no part of Old Europe likes us. There's evidence that Tony Blair is a space alien and the rest of the population is/was dead-set against war
Elayne: Hey Merlyn!
stephnfosterkane-klok: they just got Diebold to rig the voting machines
Elayne: And of course we can't travel out of the country at all until his passport is renewed and his green card okay.
Freq Man: A space alien... hmmm that explains a lot
Dr. Headphones: sounds like a good reason for road trip to london :)
Dr. Headphones: oh wait, the road does NOT go to london
stephnfosterkane-klok: yeah, and they're controlling Bush, too
Dexter Fong goes in search of a rat-hole filled with pickles...or is it bottles and Catherwood's copious drink tray
Elayne: Oh, did y'all see my Silly Site today? Weirdly cool: http://www.freshsensation.com/samorost.swf
Freq Man: Only nice dictators can play with oil...
stephnfosterkane-klok: Ken - you got it. all roads lead to Amber
Elayne: Running out of Silly Sites, so please keep submitting ideas!
Merlyn: yeah, bergman showed me that site
Elayne: Samorost was very neat, it took me almost an hour to figure it out.
Elayne: Unlike Myst, which I still haven't figured out.
Dr. Headphones: e: i've been there before, never quite did grasp the concept
Elayne: Did he refer you to any other sites that you can recall, Merlyn?
Elayne: Dr H, you just have to figure out in what order to click on things to move to the next screen.
Dr. Headphones: e: here's one that's about spielburg (in part). you have to understand grand rapids is VERY conservative town: http://www.mlive.com/news/grpress/index.ssf?/base/news-13/1078415574236460.xml
Elayne: The one I can't figure out is Pantry: http://www.jimmy-k.com/amanita/www/playgrounds/1spiska.swf
Elayne: That's more "weird news" than "silly site" but I like the article, Dr. H :)
Merlyn: no, E
Dr. Headphones: WTF? ghostly pigs jumping from a dish of potatoes?
||||||||| It's 9:40 PM, and that means it's time to play BEAT THE REAPER! And here's how our contestants did:

Dexter Fong: Another busted Myth Ken: Italian Vampires don't care
||||||||| Charles Foster Dudley enters at 9:42 PM as Catherwood takes their hat and goat and runs off to the Haberdashery Barn.
Charles Foster Dudley: G'day Y'all!

Dexter Fong: Claire and her husband?
stephnfosterkane-klok: nah, they were all 2CVs

Dexter Fong: Wow! What a reap
Dr. Headphones: hmmm, i would have put harvey in there just for a difference. the invisible puka against the robots
stephnfosterkane-klok: it's kind of the French mini-Cooper, but to quote the Black Lectoid in my all-time favorite S-F, The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across..., "...it's a very bad design"
doctec: reap of faith
Dexter Fong: ..and what about the Mexican Vampire women?

stephnfosterkane-klok: is that a spin-off of ER with that Bosnian doctor and some friends?
Dexter Fong Would like to visit the Island of Jeane Moreau
stephnfosterkane-klok: I didn't know she was trained in medicine!

Merlyn: I'm mixing sound effects for marscon, so I'm not too available tonight...
Rotonoto: it's that salt air- just freezes you in place after a while, plus gives you that characteristic Ri accent
Bubba's Brain gets out a bottle of Grecian Formula. Hmmm.... tastes good.
Bambi: I wasn't from New Jersey either, but I lived there for about 25 years
Dr. Headphones: marooned? when i saw you, looked more like a burgandy color to me

||||||||| Catherwood enters the room, strikes a gong, and bellows "THE TIME IN NEW YORK IS 11 O'CLOCK", then silently exits.
Dexter Fong: Full page article in today's Daily News about the origen of the song "We Heil..etc. Right in the Fuerer's Face"
Rotonoto: it's equal parts creme de menthe, guacamole, and lime sherbert, silly- everyone knows that

Dexter Fong: Klok: Register Now!
stephnfosterkane-klok has been having dizzy spells, working on that instead
Dr. Headphones: bub: put down the tea, dont' take another sip!
Dexter Fong: Bub: Step away from the strainer
Rotonoto: step away from the tea cup
Dexter Fong: That too
Rotonoto: ignore what the dememted rabbit is telling you
Dexter Fong: Listen to your inner Weasel
Dr. Headphones: that's not a rabbit, that's a hare
stephnfosterkane-klok: is that like a deprecated rabbit?
Bubba's Brain: Isn't it feed your head and starve a fever.....?
Rotonoto: (or was that denatured?)
Dexter Fong: A Hare? Let's split
Bubba's Brain: I've got hare remover....
||||||||| "11:12 PM? 11:12 PM!!" says Catherwood, "L'Yämamøto Volante should be here by now...oh, THERE you are!" as L'Yämamøto Volante enters and sits on the couch.
Dexter Fong: Put it right Nair
Rotonoto: I'll show you how deep the wabbit hole goes...
Dr. Headphones: a depreciated rabbit is worth less "as time goes by"
stephnfosterkane-klok: klok's inner Weasel seems to have been messed up this week...
Dexter Fong: OI camosito
stephnfosterkane-klok: kind of scary on Tue, was lying on the floor and trying to hold on...
Dr. Headphones: YAMMIE! welkum, mein freund
Bubba's Brain: I took the blue pill, and only woke up with an erection.
Rotonoto: oi, compadre
L'Yämamøto Volante: Yes
L'Yämamøto Volante: and OI
Dr. Headphones: wow, klok, sounds like something you need a second opinion on. yours isn't enough, see a doctor
Dexter Fong: Ve are all schpreaking ze deautsch
L'Yämamøto Volante: oh
Dr. Headphones: bub: and dreams of bob dole?
Rotonoto: das is nicht fer der gespeaking
L'Yämamøto Volante: I'll turn you upside down and you'll speak Chinese
Dexter Fong: Klok: Assuming you're not doing heavy drugs or copious alchohol, Ken is right
stephnfosterkane-klok: can't afford it. comes and goes; not scary now, but right frightening the first time. I think it's Norfolk virus or something
Rotonoto: bob dole doesn't dream about bob dole
doctec seconds that opinion, klok
Bubba's Brain: I dreamed I was throwing footballs through a tire....
Dr. Headphones: lol, roto!
Dexter Fong: Roto: Briben sie Boca
Rotonoto: snicker
doctec: so, then the treatment is to stay out of Norfolk?
stephnfosterkane-klok: nothing to report or demonstrate; I know what'll happen
Rotonoto: yah, right bubs- footballs (wink wink nudge nudge)
Dr. Headphones: klok: emergency rooms must serve you if it's an emergency. if you get there (and driving could be problematic) fake a faint
Dexter Fong: Bub: Me too, but did I feel hornewy
L'Yämamøto Volante: I usually avoid Norfolk too many sailors
stephnfosterkane-klok: yeah, 'till I've got my crown, DT (obscure Emmylou Harris song)
Dexter Fong: This is the Cheer from Norfolk High "We don't smoke, We don't drink! Norfolk...Norfolk
Rotonoto: I lived in Norfolk 3 years, hid out in the belly of the beast neatly avoiding the nam
stephnfosterkane-klok: Ken, if they serve you, you have to pay big time. My deductible is $300 and until it's burned, it's all out of MY pocket.
L'Yämamøto Volante Crowns Klok w/an Emmylou Harris album
Dr. Headphones: klok: don't tell them you have any insurance, plead poverty
L'Yämamøto Volante: Roto, you just like President!
Dr. Headphones: yam: what is volante? did you misspell the late lamented chrysler "volare"?
stephnfosterkane-klok is too principled to lie about things like that (other things, well...)
L'Yämamøto Volante: no wait, you not send ppl to war.....
L'Yämamøto Volante: Volante-"Flying"
Rotonoto: last time I had the dizzies, there was now way I was going to drive to ER, decided to wait it out, good decision as it passed soon enough (virus?)
Dr. Headphones: ok, i don't speak whatever language that is, didn't know
stephnfosterkane-klok: I have a doctor, but if unable to demonstrate the effect, I'll just end up burning $70 for..."If it occurs continuously, come back"
L'Yämamøto Volante: You should get looked at
Rotonoto: roto like president but much more breakable
L'Yämamøto Volante: and poorer
Dr. Headphones: klok: any free clinics in your area? no joke, i dno't mean the VD places, but some areas have them
stephnfosterkane-klok: it's becoming less severe and less frequent. But Tue. was scary, kind of like being major seasick suddenly in your chair at home.
L'Yämamøto Volante: Could be blood pressure
stephnfosterkane-klok: nothing like that Ken. let's see if it trails off. neighbors told me that Norfolk hits much like that
Rotonoto: have heard the dizzies can result simply from minor inner ear infection...
L'Yämamøto Volante: Yes
Dr. Headphones: god, i was seasick once in my life, wouldn't wish it on anyone, even an enemy
Rotonoto: I remember a cure was surprisingly simple too...
Dexter Fong use'd to listen to Dizzy...Bird too
L'Yämamøto Volante: You should go to doctor and give him all yr money
Rotonoto: therapist positioned and repositioned patient, object being to cause some little object in inner ear to drift down and away, symptoms thereby immediately abated
stephnfosterkane-klok: well, there's seasick nausea; I've had that, really unpleasant. You want to die, but you're oriented OK
doctec: i had a nasty migraine all day, i attribute it to rapidl shifts in barometric pressure and changes in air particle content associated with coming of spring
Dexter Fong: Roto: Also can recommend white Noise in Massive Volumes
L'Yämamøto Volante: I had a ripping headache all day today
stephnfosterkane-klok: ...and there's seasick dizzy, which can be fatal if you're alone and trying to navigate or handle sails
Dexter Fong whislts happily and sys, I've newver felt better in my life, dum-de dum"
stephnfosterkane-klok: this is also definitely related to eating, as it occurs shortly thereafter. there's one possible cure, but rather unpleasant and not useful in the long term ;-)
Rotonoto: saw somethng on tube lately about dizziness caused by some tiny object touching inner ear stuff
Dexter Fong Takes remedial tping class
Rotonoto: floating around on inside and contacting that sensitive hammer/anvil stuff in there
stephnfosterkane-klok: like a spider that crawled in there?
L'Yämamøto Volante: You could apply Black and Decker Therapy
Dr. Headphones: well, klok, if there's anything i can do, let me know. but with the distance involved......
Dexter Fong: Roto: Severe penalty result from removing Inner Ear Identification Tag
Rotonoto: so you move patient around so as to shift this tiny object away and symptoms supposed to abate
Bubba's Brain: I can't and won't cover old debts. But there would be the benefit of new sales.
stephnfosterkane-klok: hey, I was alarmed on Tue; think I've got a handle on it now (or more precisely, it has a handle on me!)
Bubba's Brain: sorry, wrong conversation
Dexter Fong: Crank it up Klok
Rotonoto: no, was more like naturally-occuring tiny solid floating around in there, and object is to just get it to shift away and stop the irritation (experienced as dizziness)
L'Yämamøto Volante: That's alright
Dexter Fong: Bubba: It's *was* wierdly cool
Dr. Headphones: roto: much like the "floaters" you can sometimes see in your field of vision?
L'Yämamøto Volante: yes
stephnfosterkane-klok: Ken, thanks. I'm pretty sure it's a virus; if it doesn't go away soon, I will seek a doctor's help
Rotonoto: that was my vague impression from watching this ~1 min. sound bite on 6 o'clock news
Dexter Fong: I see Dead Floaters......
L'Yämamøto Volante: Maybe you need that new miricale pill they're advirtising on the radio
Dr. Headphones: most virus infections are self-limiting. the ones that aren't, well, we won't talk about them, will we?
Dexter Fong: ...and Little Guys in Melty Hats
L'Yämamøto Volante: The Seargent's been on them for a week and he's a changed man
Dexter Fong: ...and the last 36 Episodes of "Laster for you Beaver"
Dexter Fong: Later
||||||||| Gusts of wind blow in from outside and the thumpa-thumpa-thumpa of helicopter blades is heard as Happy Panditt's chopper lands on the lawn and Lili Lamont disembarks at 11:27 PM.

Rotonoto: or as they say it in frwench, "pray-zant"!
||||||||| L'Yämamøto Volante departs at 11:29 PM, singing "Toad away, toad away; toad away, toad away! Where do you go when you're toad away?"

Dr. Headphones: what about lips? oh, that's dyslexia
doctec: nite mr. y. of hollywood
Lili Lamont: You try speaking French without a lisp!
Dexter Fong: Lili: Doc said you were just back from the salmon...upstream or something
Dr. Headphones: i took spanish in high school only because french sounded "sissy"
Dexter Fong: ..and it's scrolled off so you can't check it
Lili Lamont: Ah, yes. Good for the image and the visage.
Rotonoto: headmaster say "Rotonoto"! I say "pray-zant"! I think they call it roll call- or is it role-playing?
Lili Lamont: But soon, it will be curry, and plenty of it, too.
stephnfosterkane-klok: trying to curry flavor again, eh?
Dr. Headphones: without being racist here, i was really amazed when i went to guadaloupe and found black people speaking french. it just blew me away. never imagined that before
Lili Lamont: Doc: Email tonight says it's a go.
doctec: ah, so you got email confirming india gig is a go after all?
Dexter Fong: Roto: You put on Pray Robe, thanks you-a Lucky Strikes you free man now
stephnfosterkane-klok: yeah, go to Haiti...;-)
Rotonoto: oh, Roto say: "good to curry favor with good chef"!
Dr. Headphones: no thanks, klok, i avoid flying lead anywhere i can
doctec: just think of all the bollywood movies you'll get a chance to see
Dexter Fong: ?Good chef? Gesundtaicht
Lili Lamont: Yep. Now I have to get stuck like a pin cushion for all the evils diseases that are rampant.
stephnfosterkane-klok: or you can see Bollywood
Dexter Fong: Doc: Those movies go in and out like anything
Rotonoto: oh mister dex- roto put on prayer robe, got to good indian restaurant for lunch, leave blissful and overstuffed
Lili Lamont: Actually, the hotel is very close to Bollywood, maybe a kilometer.
stephnfosterkane-klok: or get put in as an exotic American
Dr. Headphones: uh oh, sounds like someone is getting outsourced direct to the source!
Rotonoto: Roto mostly prayerful after leaving bollywood eatery
Lili Lamont: Good call, Dr. H. At least I'm taking work away from some Indian.
stephnfosterkane-klok: she's starting her own outsourcing group, Ken - they manage your email inbox, remove spam, etc. overnight. $29/mo
Rotonoto: no, they bring it here to america, you just learn to like curry, it fabulous vittles for shy american boy
Bubba's Brain: Booray for Ballywood
Lili Lamont: Klok: trust me, this is for a lot more than $29/month.
Dr. Headphones: lili: watch out for the sioux when you are there ;)
Lili Lamont: So sioux me!
stephnfosterkane-klok: no, what I meant was that the SERVICE is $29/mo. Per person using it
doctec: klok: you may be on to something there
stephnfosterkane-klok: I've thought of setting something like that up in Bangladesh
doctec: beware of strangers offering 'wampum'
Lili Lamont: It's a good thing that there are a shitload of people there, so that I can collect some serious money.
Rotonoto: build everything on stilts, watch out for monsoon floods
stephnfosterkane-klok: you bet DT -- they are already doing your bank records and tax forms, so what is the harm in having them read your email?
Bubba's Brain: Whomp em?
Dexter Fong: Lili: You getem, *I'll* wampum
Lili Lamont: The State Dept. web site advises that visitors not have sex with the locals. I think I can go with that.
Rotonoto: I still say they speak a different engrish that Roto
Dexter Fong: Watch out for mongeese...or is it Mongooses...or maybe Monghi?
Dr. Headphones: lol, lili! unless you find some good looking little tamil tiger....
stephnfosterkane-klok: yeah, Lili -- the recommendation is to fly to Bangkok if you're really desperate
Dexter Fong: And that's Tiger's name is Roy Siegfried
Rotonoto: nothing like an entire indian village, goaded into full blown outrage and anger- can you say "torches and pitchforks"?
Dexter Fong: Klok: How appropriate
doctec: bang cock ... !?
Lili Lamont: Tiger, tiger, burning bright, in the forest of the night, what immortal hand or eye could frame thy fearful symmetry.
stephnfosterkane-klok: Roto, they can't afford torches and pitchforks
Dexter Fong: Torches and Pitchforksala
stephnfosterkane-klok: ditto if you're sick: head for Bumrungrad Hospital in Bangkok pronto
Bubba's Brain: Siebenburgishe?
Rotonoto: probably, but they can afford to assemble in large numbers in righteous anger- don't mess with the local women!
Dexter Fong: Nicht Seeum Burgish
stephnfosterkane-klok: sheesh
Dexter Fong: Step away from the Thughee
Lili Lamont: Actually, I'm going to get stuck with tons of inoculations and load up on stomach virus meds.
stephnfosterkane-klok: the problem is avoiding them assembled in righteous anger for other reasons
Dexter Fong: Klok: Like mandatory Assembly?
Lili Lamont: Those damn thugee! You try scrubbing them out and soaking them out, and they still try to garrot you!
stephnfosterkane-klok: the BJP has got everyone whipped up to a real tizzy the last couple years
stephnfosterkane-klok: burning mosques, etc.
Rotonoto: made delerious by curry and saffron, he staggered out of the kitchen and ran right into the local tamil tigers leader, who naturally took it whe wrong way...
Dexter Fong: 'thinks to himslef BJP? Blow job Pople
stephnfosterkane-klok: major political party, Dex
Lili Lamont: I just have to stay out of Kashmir and any heavily Muslim occupied territory, since I refuse to wear a burka in 95 degree heat.
Dexter Fong: ....wrapped as he was in that Saucy Bernakse, he slipped right through they're fingers
doctec: i know - i'm just thinking short term, until the business is back on its feet
stephnfosterkane-klok: they're actually quite thin

Dexter Fong: Lili: What exit?
Rotonoto: I sikh no hides
Bubba's Brain: Oh, you're a non-sequitarian, too?
stephnfosterkane-klok: most sikhs aren't, I don't think. they are supposed to wrap their uncut hair in a turban, always carry a comb and a knife
Rotonoto: hide and no sikh? nite Lili
stephnfosterkane-klok: people misunderstand that -- the "knife" is usually ceremonial, not a machete
Dexter Fong: Hi, Hyde Sheik here, for www.oasis.org
stephnfosterkane-klok: nite Lili
Bubba's Brain: or is that non-sikh-uitarian?
doctec: nite sweetie
Rotonoto: the knife is to cut off their long hair if it ever gets caught in an escalator?

Dexter Fong: Where is your Elevator Bo?
doctec: will be hitting the sack as soon as i've gone through two days worth of emails (800 msgs total)
